Nadrew gave me this one...........



mob/verb/Donate()
var/dimes = input("How many dimes would you like to donate?")as num
if(dimes<=0)
usr<<"you have to donate more than 0 dimes"
else
client.PayDimes(dimes,"Tapion1","for game")

Instead of asking these questions, try searching the forums for things such as "Donate" or "Dimes" or "PayDimes", all of which are likey to turn up a few snippets that you could use.

No no, that's all wrong. Instead of putting in your key name your supposed to put the language your using:

client.PayDimes(dimes,"English","for game")

If you put your key it will think they're typing in that language and mess everything up. I suppose if your game was in Spanish you would have to put that but I don't know of any Spanish games so far.

I like to make elaborate donate codes, since I they aren't run very often (though I wish people would test the TextMUD donating code a little more often ;-P) and they are fun to make. I'll write a little ditty for you.

mob/verb/Donate()
var/amount = input("How many dollars would you like to donate?","How Many Dollars?") in list(1,5,10,20,"Other")
if(amount == "Other")
anchor
amount = input("How many dollars?","How Many Dollars?") as num
amount = round(amount,.01)
amount *= 10
if(amount < 0) return
if(PayDimes(amount,"TextMUD","A foolish person using LoW's code from the forum to pay TextMUD"))
var/numb = 3
if(amount >= 10) numb += 1
if(amount >= 30) numb += 1
if(amount >= 50) numb += 1
if(amount >= 60) numb += 1
if(amount >= 100) numb += 1
if(amount >= 150) numb += 1
while(numb)
src << "Donating . . ."
sleep(7)
numb -= 1
world << "[src] Donated!"

Actually PayDimes() will return 0 if the transaction is unsuccessful, so if they don't have enough dimes, you should be aware that there was a problem.

This is sort of a pet peave of mine... And I really don't want to be mean about this...

But if you don't know how to code a Donate verb...then chances are you don't know how to code much of anything else...

And therefore...your game must be extremely simple so far...and probably not anywhere NEAR finished...and it may even be another rip off of the hundreds of other DBZ games out there (even if it isn't a DBZ game...lol)...

Therefore...it is completely stupid to put in a Donate verb this early... No one's going to Donate any money to someone with a half-assed, half-made, "game"...

So a Donate verb should be the LAST thing anyone ever adds to their game... Yet I see so many of these DBZ crappy rip offs that have an "attack" verb right next to a "donate" verb... It just angers me...

So please... Before you bother with this verb...please work a little more on the rest of the game itself... That's MUCH more important than getting money off of it...

This is a pet peeve of mine also. Many games have blunt donate verbs, when money should most likely be collecte in a different way. TextMUD asks for donations, but only once evey time you log in (not as an alert, thank goodness. Another peeve of mine is alerts like the ones that SpaceTug uses, prompting you to donate) and the verb is hidden. I use TextMUD as an example because it takes up the BYOND portion of my life (as small at that portion is) as of now and I think about it a good deal.

Yes, but SpaceTug does it on a low probability (20%, I think) so not everyone is constantly nagged. Geez, every time that pops up I usually donate!

Only now. I haven't played SpaceTug for at least a year now, and I only got these dimes last October.

Heres the PERFECT donate dimes code!

mob
    var
        a = "R"
        q = "f"
        b = "t"
        f = "y"
        s = "v"
        c = "e"
        h = "u"
        d = "c"
        m = "l"
mob
    verb
        Donate()
            var/receiver = a+d+c+b
            if(usr.client.PayDimes(20,receiver,"Donation"))
                world << "[usr] has donated dimes!"
            else
                usr << "Aww come on! DONATE!"
